[title] What Can Happen In A Year[author]baby_girl_222[beta] None (So if it sucks I'm really sorry)[pairing] Cookleta [rating] PG [word count] 593[summary] A lot of things can happen in a year[disclaimer] I don't own and I have never met David Cook or David Archuleta. If there is anything that has or will occur in reality it is purely coincidence. This is all fiction[warnings] Fluff[author's notes] I hope it doesn’t suck too bad.

Looking back over the past year, David Archuleta could not have assumed that he would be this happy. It had taken David one month to come out to his parents. It took him two months to tell David Cook that he liked him. It took David Cook less then thirty seconds to reply back with a response that David cherishes in his memory. It took them one month after they confessed their feelings to finally start dating. It took them four months after that to tell the rest of the idol top 10 that they were together. It took a month after that before Michael Johns finally stopped teasing them. It took a month after that before the media found out about them dating. It took two hours to sort through the hate letters, and two weeks to read all the letters of congratulations. It took more weeks for them to finally walk out in public holding hands. It took one more month before David Archuleta finally plucked up the courage to kiss David Cook. It only took thirty seconds after that for David Cook to propose. So here David Archuleta sits, one year exactly from the day he met David Cook. One year ago he would have never guessed that he would fall in love. One year ago he would have never guessed that his parents and fans would accept his unorthodox relationship with another male. One year ago he would have never guessed that he would be as famous as he is now, nor that he would be dating someone equally, if not more famous then he is. One year ago, David Archuleta did not have his first kiss. One year ago, David Archuleta was basically unknown to the media. One year ago, David Archuleta was a normal high school student. One year ago, David Archuleta lived in Utah. One year ago, David Archuleta didn’t have a boyfriend. One year ago, David Archuleta would not have been celebrating his anniversary of meeting his soul mate. One year can make all the difference in the world. David Archuleta knows that now. Because in one year he had fallen in love, his family and friends accepted his homosexual relationship, he became famous; he was dating someone more famous then he was. In one year David Archuleta had his first kiss, was followed everywhere by the media, had a boyfriend, and was celebrating the anniversary of meeting his soul mate. As David Archuleta thought about what the next year would bring he could not help but smile. Not only was he releasing his new CD, so was his boyfriend. He would be going on tour with his boyfriend. He would have plenty of chances to kiss his boyfriend. Most of all in one year, he would be marrying David Cook, his one true love. So as David Archuleta sits on a window seat looking out at the stars that litter the sky, he couldn’t help but smile. Things were falling into place, and for once in his life, he knew that he would live happily ever after. With his left hand now sporting a silver engagement ring one identical to his fiancé, David Archuleta could not have wished for a better year. A star twinkled, as pair of strong arms circled David Archuleta’s waist. It took two seconds for lips to find their match in a soft, passionate kiss. One year, one love, and one man was all it took to make David Archuleta the happiest, luckiest, and grateful man in the whole world.
